Chase had a hockey game in Fenton at 12:50 p.m. Mama and Nanaw drove separately to the game instead of with Daddy and Chase because Chase has to get get there at least 45 minutes before the game starts. Nanaw dressed warmly and took her heaviest blanket but the rink turned out to have heaters so it wasn't overly cold. Chase's Uncle George, Auntie LaLa and Chris also came to watch the game so Chase had quite the cheering fans section. It was such an exciting game because there was a major fight between players that just went on and on. One of the players on the bench came out on the ice and started fighting. He was ejected from the game because if you come on the ice illegally you're automatically ejected. The whole fight sort of roused up the teams, and they played really hard the rest of the game. Unfortunately, Chase's team lost 1 to 0. Nanaw stayed at Chase's house to help him study for Monday's math test but he didn't want to study. He said he didn’t feel like studying; he wanted to watch hockey on TV. Nanaw said okay but he would have to do four pages of math tomorrow, and he said okay. Mama, Daddy, Auntie LaLa and Chris went to Big Al's, a gambling place in Columbia for which Mama had a $25 coupon she won at last year's dinner auction. They stayed and gambled, and Mama said she lost a little money but they had lots of fun. Then they went to El Paso (the new Mexican restaurant in town) for dinner. Mama had called Nanaw to ask if she wanted to stay with Chase while they went to dinner, and Nanaw said an enthusiastic yes. Chase did his AR reading a few minutes before Mama and Daddy got home. So Nanaw will go over to Chase's house at about 4 p.m. to make sure Chase does four pages of math problems in preparation for the test.
